Update common-marvelmind.rst #6475
Conversation
We propose these changes, because previous version of the article is not actual, the recommendations were obsolete and don't work correctly with last versions of the Ardupilot and Marvelmind software. The proposed version includes link to tested sets of settings which we will continue update in future for new versions of software

This is a very different setup and means that the marvelmind acts like a GPS which is OK but removes the ability to do GPS-to-NonGPS transitions. I thought @amilcarlucas knew the most about the marvelmind but I see that @peterbarker actually wrote the driver here @smoker771 do you work at Marvelmind? |

Yes, I'm working in Marvelmind. |
| - Set :ref:`SERIAL1_BAUD <SERIAL1_BAUD>` to 115 to set telemetry1's baud rate to 115200 (if using Telem2 set :ref:`SERIAL2_BAUD <SERIAL2_BAUD>` instead) | ||
| - Set :ref:`SERIAL1_PROTOCOL <SERIAL1_PROTOCOL>` to 13 to enable receiving data from the marvelmind (If using Telem2 set :ref:`SERIAL2_PROTOCOL <SERIAL2_PROTOCOL>` instead) | ||
| - Set :ref:`BRD_SER1_RTSCTS <BRD_SER1_RTSCTS>` to 0 to ensure telem1 does not use flow control (If using Telem2 set :ref:`BRD_SER2_RTSCTS <BRD_SER2_RTSCTS>` instead, not required if using Serial4/5) | ||
| - Here is a package with tested param files for the Autopilot and Marvelmind hedge: <https://marvelmind.com/pics/marvelmind_ardupilot_settings.zip> |

I've approved but this line looks a little odd. I think there should be some single quotes around it.
I also think that we probably need to set the GPS1_TYPE = 5 (NMEA)

Thank you for approving.
We included all settings into the "param" files available by the link and "GPS_TYPE = 5" is also set there.
I will make an additional pull request to fix this odd line and some small changes in the design.
